Pssssst...hey you. Yeah, you: the attractive person reading this review. There's a hidden cocktail bar just south of Yonge & Eglinton called Bar Batavia. But it's a secret, so don't tell anyone.
Actually nevermind, TELL EVERYONE BECAUSE THIS PLACE IS AWESOME.
Head up the stairs above Little Sister (Indonesian resto) and voila, there's a speakeasy-style joint with excellent cocktails, yummy bar snacks and a cool-ass vibe.
They have a list of signature cocktails but will also happily mix up a custom libation based on the spirit and style you prefer (last time I was there I asked for "ginny citrusy" and Dave requested "bourbony smokey").
We need more places like this uptown so definitely come here and don't keep it a secret!
